I’m super excited to not have to get up and to get ready every morning. I’m excited that we will be going on vacation to the Happiest Place on Earth in about a month, {shhhh it’s a secret}. I’m excited for swim lessons, and splash pad days with friends. What I’m having mixed emotions about…my first born being a 3rd Grader all of the sudden. What?! When did that happen!?! I can’t believe this crazy, cool, handsome kid is already that old. Alright enough of my sappy Mom moment.
With school coming to an end I wanted to let my son give his classmates one final gift to say goodbye. I took some Kool-Aid packets, crazy straws, and these printables and viola! A quick and easy way to give a fun end of the year gift. All the kids can go home and make their Kool-Aid and drink it with their crazy straws, fun! The crazy straws are from Dollar Tree, 6 straws come in each pack.I made up a quick and simple printable tag to put with each one, nothing fancy but it does the trick. I just attached everything together with some bakers twine and they are ready to pass out to his friends. I think the kids are going to love them!
I remember winning a Kool-Aid plush pillow when I was a kid during a cake walk event at a local grocery store. I loved that thing.
Update! I have included an updated version of the tags for printing, no link required. Simply download the image to your computer by right clicking with your mouse and saving it. Then open and size in a program like Word or Publisher. There are now three colored tags to choose from.
How “Kool” such a cute idea!
This is adorable!
Take care,
Trish

Cute! My oldest is going into 3rd as well. I have two classes to package these up for, so I’m skipping the straw, but will be doing the same idea 🙂

I like this idea but am not finding the link to the printable. Could you please send it to me? Thanks!
This is wonderful! I don’t see a link to the printable. Do you still have it? Pretty please? =o)
Can I ask where you got the baggies the Kool-Aid is in?? I can’t wait to do this for my little kiddos . . .
Just wanted to say thank you for the idea and printable! I used the concept and added a cute cup, crazy straw and kool aid singles for the end of year gifts for the class. Tied them all up with your printable and they look very cute!

Thanks for the idea and the tags! I can’t wait to put together 55 of them for my kid’s classmates.
Love this idea!! Super cute!! But where and what kind of bags are those that you used for the kool aid packets??
Thank you so much! These were a hit with my son’s 1st Grade Class.
Hi there, I saw this on pinterest and wanted to say thank you for sharing, I plan to use it for my daughter’s last day of school which is tomorrow with freeze pops. Hope you have a great Summer!
Found this on Pinterest and I LOVE it! I’m making these over the weekend for my son’s preschool class. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Melissa! So glad you like them!
Thank you for the printable! Very cute idea. Did you realize that the updated version has the “h” in have as lower case? Like the one with the capital H.
Hi Laura, thanks. Yes I did the lower case on purpose, I just liked how it looked better with the design. 😉
What is the plastic stuff around the Kool-Aid?
They are small cellophane bags I found at the dollar store. 🙂
